Question
Is it permissible to attend a Jalsah where women are also in attendance and can be seen entering the Masjid yard? The women are accommodated separately. This Jalsah was a Bukhari khatam and Qur'an Khatam.
Answer
It is haraam to attend a haraam jalsah regardless of the deceptive designation given to the haraam, merrymaking function. All participants are mal-oon. The Qur'aan Majeed and Bukhaari Shareef are made mockeries and utilized for fulfilment of the inordinate dictates of the nafs.
These functions painted with a 'deeni' veneer are also signs of Qiyaamah. The amal of the Deen is used for the attainment of worldly and nafsaani objectives.
